gain corruption till you are highly corrupted and your Strength, Vitality and Authotity should have a purple butten to use soul essence for corrupted attribute points.

i was at the bone dragon lair.
corruption is at 50% , maxed vitality, agility and..stamina in english? I hope.
Only vitality works, no ida why

If the purple buttons don't show up, you may need to advance your sorcery knowledge a bit further, you will need soul essence anyway.

i think they should make attribute corrupting cheaper.
i think that 1 corrupted stat to 20 points should reserve only 20 or 25 % of max hp and stamina for more build possibilities right now if you corrupt your stat to 20 you have 50% hp and stamina reduction and it completely destroys interesting builds.

It would be better to reduce the penalties only slightly (2 % per stat point = 40 % for 20 stat points), remove the cap of the penalties (for example 40 corrupted stat points = 80 %) and significantly buff the effects of the corrupted perks in my opinion.

Imo, and only opinion, I don't think corrupting perks is worth the hp/stam lose in pvp. It's pretty harsh. I foresee a lot of complaints about not being tough in pvp now because stam is like 1 or 2 rolls, and you're done.

None of the corrupted perks I've seen are worth the hit to health and stamina. Instead, I think corrupted perks need to be considered alongside the fact that you need a certain threshold of corruption to cast more advanced spells, and corrupted perks help maintain that minimum level. You can be either tanky or magical, but not both.

I imagine your best bet for using corrupted abilities is going to be group play with a diversely-specced team. Consider this an excuse to go watch Conan the Destroyer again.

The health penalty with corruption isn't that big of a deal but the stamina penalty is brutal. Even if you max out grit and agility and gear up for as much stamina as possible you barely have more than a noob character. The result is that you really can't do much, especially if you actually try to go with a corrupted strength build.

I imagine there's a way to make it work but I haven't found anything reliable aside from max authority, max or near max agility and then either pumped up grit or vitality. Load up on combat thralls or zombies and hang back with a bow while they keep the enemy busy.

Unfortunately the bits of sorcery that work the best don't help much with combat. If you're solo it's not really viable. It is possible to do most content with the right followers and good gear but it wasn't very fun for me. So I would plan on a lot of re-specs.
